Ditto on the Castrol, that stuff is amazing. We have the Castrol here like water, we can't live without it, lol. We use it to clean just about everything, as long as it isn't painted .

I used to use oven cleaner as well. The spray kind. Used it on plastic models, and lexan RC Car bodies. But, if it really is the same thing as the Castrol, get whichever is cheaper.
